Fistral Beach by Candyside Arcade published on 2018-12-14T18:28:07Z Set amongst the surfers on the north Cornish coast, two contrasting approaches to loss collide dramatically; leading to a preposterous plea. Fistral Beach Blinding bright crest – briny mist stings – emblazoned in the sun The peeling shouts, a crashing blaze – stifled by the din Vain furiously crawl to intercept the rolling peak Picked-up by Neptune’s spear and carried fleetingly Cannot shake hands, familiar friends, somehow they meet again The vibrant pulse conversation waves the hours away As they round the wriggling coastal path, they walk in step (but) A distant observer sees just one young man walk alone As the evening light begins to fade His spirit friend declines the ask to stay And ghosts into the rising headland spray A double take, a mock jaw drop, the spirit’s fiancé What chance encounter, delicate perfuming embrace Once they stood together under purple shroud of grief Her corporeal manifest of his perfect life so brief Her restless team, her life rebuilt with stunning granite towers They are not armour to the past but glow with zest for life Join us in the bay they say with radiating faces And glances from the Captain show that he is her new beau Gripped with fear he stumbles. What to say? He knows his spirit friend must stay away Or drown within the truth of what became Don’t go down to Fistral Beach. The endless sand is just too golden Don’t go down to Fistral Beach. The beach bar beer is much too cold – and Its rosemary skies are still too blue. Fistral Beach is not for you, my friend Genre Rock Comment by Wide River Lovely track :) 2024-01-02T22:04:29Z Comment by STONERJAZZ ohh wow..What a find!!!This is so well done..i like it so much!! 2021-09-21T18:07:04Z Comment by cotton beast sunshine 2020-09-02T18:49:06Z Comment by Solar Kama Sutra nice vocals and rhythm, cool track 2020-08-01T16:56:45Z Comment by Fullyard what a beautiful mellow piece this is 2020-07-13T12:43:00Z Comment by Nikolaia your mellow 70s-type style is addictive 2020-05-10T20:56:05Z Comment by Dominique Briand Beautiful song 2020-05-02T07:19:12Z Comment by The Midnight Court 19 This is so good . . vocals to enjoy! 2020-05-01T19:07:43Z Comment by Lonesome Jo refreshingly different 2020-01-11T11:33:47Z Comment by Calyx Kre Awesome work!!! 2020-01-10T23:10:00Z Comment by 2TEC Nice Timing 2019-12-20T21:22:49Z Comment by PWR1 Really digging this.
